Petits-fours!

[wiseheart]

I made them, yesss, Preciousss! They are lopsided, there aren't two that were of the same size, the icing didn't work and my pitiful attempts of decorating them ended with putting some sugar flowers on top, but I made them! The biscuit is Granmda's ever-reliable sponge cake and I cheated with the cream - it is chocolate pudding with some margarine stirred in - but they stand on their own nonexistent feet and they are actually quite delicious.

They are. Just not very pretty.

As long as they are yummy, they do not need to be perfect. I am impressed, I have never attempted making pettis-fours.

Neither have I previously, and as you can see, they are as far from perfect as I am from an Olympic-grade gymnast. But I'll give them several other tries. It is fun. Messy and nerve-wrecking, but fun.

Welcome back, BTW. It's been too long since the last life sign from you. Is everything all right on your end of the connection?
